I’m back from my friend Bob’s bachelor party, an event which I have some reflections that I hope to make in the next couple of days. First, however, a moving update. Last week we found someone to sublet our apartment, which was the thing that was most unnerving about the move because it is off-season [...]

…See you Sunday

One of the best changes I’ve made in my life over the last couple of years was to cancel my cable subscription when I moved in with Marie. The few shows I do watch consistently (The Daily Show, The Colbert Report, 30 Rock, Mad Men, The Office, etc.) are easily found online and usually are [...]

I got word this morning that it is very likely that my favorite Red Sox player, Mike Lowell, will be traded to the Texas Rangers. I understand that it is a move that will more than likely make the Sox better, which I can appreciate, but baseball players that I become attached to are one [...]

I’ve been fairly noncommittal when I decided to start up this blog again as to what exactly the content will be.

Daniel Powter’s “Bad Day” has been named One Hit Wonder song of the decade by Billboard. I just figured everyone should know.

Because of a recommendation on Thanksgiving, I’ve started checking out NPR’s Planet Money. I treasure all things NPR to begin with and Planet Money is no exception. I first heard a co-production they did with This American Life on the financial collapse and thought it was very well done. I’m now subscribed to their podcast [...]

The first time I heard I and Love and You by the Avett Brothers, I changed the station without even hearing who the song was by. I put it in the same category of cheesy ballads from the likes of Snow Patrol and wasn’t grabbed by its simplicity. The second time I heard it, I was [...]

I finally got around to seeing Where The Wild Things Are today. I thought it was great. I don’t know it took me so long to get around to seeing it. It’s funny to think that the last two movies that I’ve seen have really been kids movies for adults. If kids can understand the deeper [...]
